Staphylococcus saccharolyticus is a Gram-positive, coagulase-negative coccus in the family Staphylococcaceae, found on human and animal skin and mucous membranes. It is an anaerobic or microaerophilic species capable of fermenting sugars, a trait less common in the genus Staphylococcus. As a commensal organism, it contributes to the normal microbiota of mammalian hosts.

Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a coagulase-negative, Gram-positive coccus recognized as a common cause of urinary tract infections in young women. It forms characteristic clusters of cells and inhabits human and animal skin, mucous membranes, and the periurethral area. This opportunistic pathogen is commensal under normal conditions but can colonize the urinary tract.
